Sheer Force Of Will Letra

Imploring the rest to exalt

It used to be achievement was his whole life
Now it would seem that that has changed
He only quests after cool and conceit
Thinking the rest of us deranged

Whatever happened to the country I knew?
Die for the right the right to say your peace
Now the patriots have turned into tyrants
We fear gangsters less than police

TV, convenience, and the all mighty dollar
Make up the new the Bill of Rights
Nobody cares about what's right or what's wrong
As long as their names is in lights

Sheer force of will
It's time to take back our honor
Sheer force of will
It's time to change our ways
Sheer force of will
We're only as good as we treat each other
Sheer force of will
Our arrogance is our malaise

Whatever happened to the world I knew?
Full of mana and quality
Once there was a common human ideal
Which is now called money

Why is it that we're judged by our possessions?
Can we buy ourselves respect?
If that's what being a man has come to
I refuse to genuflect

Sheer force of will
It's time to take back our honor
Sheer force of will
It's time to change our ways
Sheer force of will
We're only as good as we treat each other
Sheer force of will
Our arrogance is our malaise
